Shared conventions and development tasks for Rust projects in the Socketry organization.
Rust projects should share a small set of clear conventions and a reliable release process without repeating task wiring in every repository.
Install the launcher and create the private task package:
cargo install socketry-cargo-bake --locked
cargo bake --regenerateAdd this dependency under the existing [dependencies] table in bake/Cargo.toml:
socketry-project = ">=0.3.7"Then run cargo bake --regenerate again to link the dependency's tasks. The command keeps generated links separate from task source, so no manual import in main.rs is needed. Run cargo bake --list to see the available tasks. The open-ended minimum requirement keeps this development dependency eligible for newer releases. Cargo.lock records the selected version for reproducible builds; update it deliberately when adopting a newer release.
This adds the standard Cargo, release, license, Readme, Markdown, agent-context, and testing tasks, including test and test:external. It also registers a version-bump hook that updates the project's standard files.
See the repository setup skill for the minimal Cargo configuration and the conventions for repository layout, documentation, and code conventions. The Rust Repository Layout explains source organization. The testing skill sets expectations and points to bake-test-rust for task and workflow details.
Prepare a release with cargo bake cargo:version:patch (or minor, major, or bump --version X.Y.Z), then run cargo bake cargo:release and open a pull request. After review and merge, GitHub Actions publishes the release when the configured crates-io environment approves it, then creates or updates the matching GitHub Release from releases.md. See the shared Releasing skill for the standard release process.
See releases.md for the full release history.
- Require a stable aggregate test and coverage result alongside publishing checks.
- Clarify merge gates and repository-owned agent guidance in the shared conventions.
- Normalize standard project Markdown files after version bumps.
- Fix the version bump hook's invocation of the Markdown normalizer.
- Include
bake-markdown0.3.0 in the shared task set so version bumps use hyphen markers for unordered lists.
- Require
bake-test-rust0.3.0 or newer for LLVM region coverage and update the shared testing guidance to match.
Please open an issue or pull request on GitHub.
Run cargo bake agent:context:install to install shared context and skills. Read .agents/context/index.md to find relevant guides, follow agents.md if present, and apply skills under .agents/skills/. The installer preserves repository-owned agents.md; it does not create or regenerate that file.
